The Chee (Were-Kin)

Three-foot-tall, barrel-built warriors with elf-like, almost hobbit-ish faces and fuzzy heads wrapped Rambo-style in red bandanas. Once the Chee (a peaceful race of carpenters) they were all but exterminated the night the High Elves came for their land; the survivors are now Were-Kin, each of whom turns into something he won’t reveal until he tells you, shows you, or bites you. Led by the one-legged Light Recon Specialist Clint Smashgrab (Lv 50), the brothers have allied with Tsarina Signet against a shared enemy: the High Elves who rule the Selva.
